“What’s the matter with you, Ragnar?” Valkoth asked as he strode into the chamber where the others meditated. “You look like orks pissed in your ale.”

“There are some ales on Terra that would improve,” said Haegr knowledgeably.

“I passed the place where Pantheus is being questioned.”

“And?” Valkoth sounded genuinely interested, and his scent confirmed this. The others were giving him their full attention.

“It sounds like they were carving the blood eagle on his back.”

“I doubt the Navigators would do anything so unsophisticated,” said Torin. “They are using machines. Neural induction coils, electrodes. Drugs as well, I would imagine.”

He sounded a little too knowledgeable for Ragnar’s liking.

“The old ways are the best,” said Haegr. “Though I doubt any of those effete Terrans would have the stomach for the eagle. They might get some blood on their nice uniforms.”

“Maybe you should go and show them how it’s done,” said Valkoth sourly.

“Don’t suggest it,” said Torin. “Haegr would only forget what he was supposed to ask and try and learn where he kept all his food.”

Ragnar did not find the joke funny. He was shocked by their attitude. They obviously shared none of his qualms or queasiness about what was being done. He could tell from their manner, their voices and their scents. Was it possible that he was the only one who saw anything wrong here? If so, was it possible that he was the one who was wrong, who was out of step with his comrades and his world? Was all this just the sign of some weakness in himself?

He shook his head and stared bleakly out of the porthole. The steel clad mass of Terra was visible once more. He was not glad to be back.
